Identity Management

Link Data to Publications

http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/icpsrweb/ICPSR/citations/

“Since data are still considered an alternative metric of a researcher's impact, the more data repositories and altmetric organizations can take advantage of ORCIDs, the more a researcher's impact becomes apparent (not to mention the value of shared research data).” -Elizabeth Moss (ICPSR)

"It [an ORCID] would be attached to researchers' journal publications, and could also be assigned to data sets they helped to generate, comments on their colleagues' blog posts or unpublished draft papers, edits of Wikipedia entries and much else besides. This kind of 'microattribution' could ultimately make it possible for each researcher to have a constantly updated 'digital curriculum vitae' providing a picture of his or her contributions to science going far beyond the simple publication list." “Credit where credit is due” editorial (http://doi.org/10.1038/462825a)

Implementing ORCID @ ICPSR

Identity Management

Policy Issues

• Whether to use? – Wait or lead? – Integration with Michigan ecosystem?

• How to implement? – Retrofit, integrate, or build into new system?

• Using ORCID to link data with publications.

Future Dreams

• What do our users want? • What is most beneficial to the community?

• Make the primary email address in ORCID viewable to trusted third parties by default.

• Allow depositor to link previous deposits to ORCID ID upon submission.

• Once ORCID IDs for all University of Michigan faculty and staff, consider retrofit to add those ORCID IDs to our collection.

• Authority control for authors -- clean up underlying database so authors can be disambiguated.

• Linking data with publications.
